We all went together tonight to our Dr's appt for the baby and me. Jack requested to "See the baby" and the Doctor agreed. :)
We went into the room with the ultrasound machine. The little one was quite active and strong according to the Doctor...and we, the proud parents and big brothers would agree. It was kicking and punching, flipping and moving all over. The boys thought it was quite amazing, their first time ever seeing an ultrasound. Think it made the baby more real to them. 2 arms, 2 legs, feet, hands and the most beautiful heart beating. We only got one picture as it was moving so much, and in this picture you can't see a lot. But trust me, it was wonderful.
We are so thankful that this little one is coming into our family. What a blessing it was to see him/her growing so well. God is good.
And to top it off we called my Grandma Lu on the way home, she is still in the hospital but getting a little bit stronger every day. She is SO excited to be a great-gma for the 19th time now. When we told her we were expecting over the 4th of July she beamed, she can't get enough of these babies. So double the blessing that our baby was well and Grandma is able to talk and share in the excitement with us. Continued prayer for Grandma and baby too.
Yeah! So excited that the boys got to see their oh-so-active sibling! :) Would have loved to be a fly on the wall watching their reactions. Such special moments...
